Adding Coconut Oil to
Your Diet

We are often asked about the
best way to "take" coconut oil. This question indicates the
perception of coconut oil as a medicine or drug as opposed to a
food. Inquiries about coconut oil capsules are further evidence
of this perception. A better question would be: How can I add
coconut oil to my diet? This shift in thinking opens up a wide
range of possibilities for improving one's health by making a
change to a more healthful oil.

Coconut oil can be considered
a "medicine" in the same sense that other healthful foods are
"medicines" which help our bodies achieve or maintain a state
of good health by providing the necessary fuel. An analogy can
be drawn between running a car on bad gas with low octane and
containing water, dirt and other impurities and our consuming a
low quality diet. If we add an octane booster and some "dry
gas" to the tank along with all of the bad gas we will see some
improvement, but not as much as if we replaced the bad gas with
good clean fuel. If we add coconut oil to our diet, strictly as
a supplement we will reap some benefit (from its high lauric
acid content, for example). On the other hand, if we look at
replacing unhealthful fats (shortening, margarine and
hydrogenated oils in general, as well as (in my opinion) most
of the vegetable oils sold at the supermarket) with coconut oil
we can anticipate reaping the maximum benefits which it offers.
I believe this is true for anyone, but for people who have
trouble with fats in the diet such as those with Crohn's
disease or other digestive ailments coconut oil offers welcome
relief because it is so readily usable by the body without
having to be broken down in the digestive tract.

Coconut oil can be added to
the diet in various ways, aside from just eating it by itself
(although a number of our customer do eat the oil by the
spoonful). Perhaps the best way to add coconut oil is to use it
as a staple in cooking. We are often asked about recipes
using coconut oil, but essentially any recipe calling for
butter, shortening, margarine or vegetable oil can be a
"coconut oil" recipe. It is simply a matter of substituting
coconut oil for whatever oil is called for in the
recipe.

I personally think that the
maximum benefits from coconut oil will be seen by using it to
the greatest extent possible in place of other fats which range
from being less beneficial to downright harmful to our
health.

I'm back to buying the best! I tried another brand
coconut oil brand claiming to be "virgin" and highest quality - it was TERRIBLE & tasted like soap!! I
forced myself to choke down 16oz before relegating the rest to cooking oil status. Just *thinking* about
making my morning "butter coffee" with your sweet coconut oil supreme again makes me feel happy! Though I
thought to save $, it ended up being a costly mistake & hard-to-swallow lesson!

Bought several coconut oils from health food stores.
Although they were organic, the smell and taste were awful and had to throw them out. When I saw the sample
size of coconut supreme I thought it was perfect to try first before spending money on a product I wasn't
sure of. (customer who first bought sample.) M.S.

I am a nurse, I had a patient a few nights ago who let me
use some of her coconut oil supreme after I commented on how nice her lotion smelled. She wanted me to get an
extra medication cup and fill it with a few scoops to take home and try. I love how it moisturizes my over
dry over washed nursing hands. I am going to try it in my dog's food also, he is always itchy. I will let you
know! I am also purchasing a jar for my mother who has a lot of allergies to products. Thanks!!

My husband and I love this product! We've tried other
coconut oils and none of them match the quality and taste. We also love that it is available in such a large
quantity! S.S.

I am ordering these two samples and having them sent to
one of my dearest friends because I want her to try these two products. I have become a walking
'advertisement' for Coconut Oil Supreme!! ...I am a repeat customer
because I love, love, love your products! D. W.

This is my second order. Yours is the
first Coconut Oil I have tried, but I can't imagine any other company's product being better. Your Cococnut Oil
Supreme has such a delicate flavor. I use it now also as a skin moisturizer and have fallen in love with it's
ultra-light fragrance. Wish I had discovered your company sooner! Linda D.

You offer the best selection with the highest quality.
I love this company ...I've been a long time customer and absolutely
love your products. I highly recommend to anyone who asks. You're the best out there. For me quality far exceeds
the cost! S.N.

You carry the absolute best coconut based products
available, and your coconut oil is head and shoulders better than any other oil available. S.J.

Thanks for your good work in making this good oil
available online... I luv the coconut oil from your store -- its clarity and and smooth consistency (almost like
water), fresh natural taste and mild fragrance, and quality is the best one I've found... it's the best of the
best!! A regular / longtime customer now, Sharon S.

Just wanted to say I love your coconut oil. I have
been trying several brands and I bought a small quantity from each. I noticed how crystal clear your oil is when
it's in its melted state. The other oils were yellow, cloudy or just disgusting looking. Thanks for a great product
and will be ordering again soon. M.S.

You have the most delicious tasting coconut oil I have
ever tasted. I tried 5 different brands. You're the best!
